Maiden Voyage of my Inflatable Fishing Raft

[@HanSoloxcs]

The coolness of your sunglasses destabilized the boat.

[@TylerGoesFishing]

hahahaha

[@richarddorsch7275]

You can store the rods on both sides of the boat where the Velcro straps are which are for the 2 oars that come with the boat. I think you could also pump up the boat more which would take out all those wrinkles. How do I know this you may ask. I also have this boat and I put in a 7 inch pedestal mount with a nice seat. It doesn’t swivel cuz there is not enough room but is far more comfortable and sits you higher up. Good luck with your new boat.

COOL 😎. First fish in your raft. First fish in the creek you got skunked at before, that's Cool 😎. Stood up, ✔. So it seemed to work fine 🙂 and you're off-the-bank. I'd say that went pretty well 👍.

[@TylerGoesFishing]

It wasn't to bad. It's better than nothing lol

[@FishingWithMayo]

Dedicated an hour to watch your vids... Thanks for the support Tyler!!!!

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Thank you. I need the watch hours lol. Ill return the favor.

[@twopassionsfishing386]

Planning on getting a inflatable fishing boat, but still shopping for the right one, God bless your day friend

"Negative Ghost Rider!" LOL :-) You're a braver man than I.

[@TylerGoesFishing]

lolol

[@donjohnson9063]

I saw a video from Sea eagle showing shoulder straps on the bottom of raft for carrying on your back for easy transport.

[@TylerGoesFishing]

yup it has that.

[@capt.tylersfishing7295]

Nice I have something like that I'll have to try it when it warms up

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Nice

[@dale3858]

Just put 2 pieces of foam at the end of a removable 6' oar or just a board so you'll have a tiny trimaran, very stable. If you would have had your paddle in your hands it would been a lot easier to stand up and stay standing...

[@BiggameTechJourney]

I know it old video great video have you heard sea eagle 285 platoon boat one person boat I’m get that one more stable to stand up. Think you got kayak you good with that. Great video

[@sethook-ro4xh]

Nice raft. I'm going to get one next month. I need to cover water. I love bass fishing. I can beat guys on bass boats from the bank. Ready to get some more big bass. 8.2lbs is current PB. But I got a few new ponds. One is holding monsters.

[@TylerGoesFishing]

best of luck

[@shana2765]

blowing that thing up looks like a workout

[@TylerGoesFishing]

very easy actually

[@rhbowhunter]

I just bought one a month or so ago and been out around 5 times with it. I really like it a lot but yesterday the canvass cover ripped real bad while I was on the water. I heard a loud pop when I was in 60 feet of water and thought holy shit I'm going down but it never happened. I went into the shore to inspect the noise and found under my seat where the canvass cover is glued to the floor of the boat right under the zipper tore. I just sent pics and an email to SeaEagle to hopefully get it repaired. I'm a little nervous about the quality now.

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Bummer. Ive used it about 5 times now and thats never happend.

[@TrilobitesRTasty]

I'm considering ordering a Sea Gate Inflatable, so I would be interested in how the Sea Gate folks respond to your customer service/ warranty question. :)

[@TrollinOntheRVA]

The boat looks So Dope from the chest cam! Nice Catch, Nice Video as usual!

[@FishTalesRVA]

Hey Tyler! Great video. Glad the maiden voyage worked out well!

[@BrandonBReelKillerFishn]

Congrats on breaking it in the right way 😎😎😎💪💪💪💪👊🎣🏆

[@corefishing4858]

I just took mine out..really liked but hated the oars..OMG..so.bad. The wind really takes it to..definitely for small non windy lakes JMO

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Yes the Oars are the worst. So I tried a kayak paddle and it worked ok

[@Jackboy61]

Good Video.!!! Keep up the Good Work.!!!

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Thanks,

[@justineatsbabiesontheweeke529]

Great video I’ve been looking at kayaks jon boats and rafts and I think this might be what I was looking for all along thnx for helping me decide 👊🏼

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Id much rather have a kayak but I have no room for one. I went with this raft because it can fit in my trunk and in my closet. If you have the space for a kayak and a means of transporting it, I would suggest a kayak.

[@ConeyIsland1952]

Packfish 7 is an awesome boat....good luck.....also why not use the Oars like a row boat vs the kayak style paddling...?

[@BrandonBReelKillerFishn]

Been waiting for this video to see how this goes that thing looks pretty dang cool

[@wildbillsadventuresoutdoor9276]

Nice setup!!!

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Thanks!

[@graysonsavri9125]

where did you get the board that make it so u can stand up

[@samanthar3964]

You need a kayak cart. I had to get one for my kayak. Or you can make one on the cheap. I have seen them made easily.

[@brandonbeauregard5545]

it has straps tou can put the boat on your back. its not that heavy travels well

[@mortschubert3909]

You can remove your shoes, get on the boat, wipe your feet dry, put the shoes back on, and stay dry for the entire duration of the fishing spree.

[@bdfree901]

Hell yea. Great vid man.

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Appreciate it!

[@WAEofFishing]

Cold water to step in!

[@woods2creeksoutdoorsdulins448]

Very cool raft!

[@TylerGoesFishing]

It is pretty cool.

[@woods2creeksoutdoorsdulins448]

I have the Cumberland float tube it’s great for rivers and small ponds.

[@brandonbeauregard5545]

I have one I love it. bout to go out myself. will definitely try this style of oar. I find the ones that come with it are not as good as they should be .

[@TylerGoesFishing]

I started using the oars it came with. It moves way faster with one oar on each side paddling at the same time.

[@brandonbeauregard5545]

@@TylerGoesFishing agreed it does go fast. just the placement of them i guess feels off. i enjoy the hell out of mine. especially in the bayous here in Louisiana

[@lazybagpipe]

Have you tried using a ladder to get in and out of the water

[@j.taylor7361]

Great, honest review! I’m 6 feet tall; do you think this would be too small?

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Im 5'7 and it felt small for me lol. Its great if you don't have room to store a kayak and want to get off the bank. If you can get a kayak id recommend that. A kayak wasnt an option at the time so i tried this.

[@j.taylor7361]

@@TylerGoesFishing Yeah, I just sold my kayak because it was taking up too much room in my garage and was a hassle to transport on my Corolla LOL. I was thinking of either an inflatable kayak or one of those v-hull belly boat/float tubes.

[@lazybagpipe]

Have your tried using an anchor or a ladder

[@Stavro33]

I use a different oar for the packfish as well the ones they came with suuuccckkk!

[@TylerGoesFishing]

what do you use

[@Stavro33]

@@TylerGoesFishing I use the oar from my lifetime emotion stealth lol

[@sarafletch]

Can this paddle long distances well?

[@TylerGoesFishing]

It's not very good. The rowing is awful long distance

[@sarafletch]

@@TylerGoesFishing good to know :) thanks

[@jeremytucker8853]

Should use 2 ores. Not one long one.

[@TylerGoesFishing]

yup! you are right. Ive used 2 ever since

[@BrandonBReelKillerFishn]

You definitely need to do a review of this make a video of just doing it 👍 this put the name on the title and put review and it should get a lot of hits😎

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Thats a good Idea. I should use it a good number of times before having enough experience to do a thorough review.

[@BrandonBReelKillerFishn]

@@TylerGoesFishing heck just a unboxing /opening putting together will get a lot of views , I have 1 unboxing Garmin that is over 2k views

[@Hey_its_Koda]

What worries me is if i hook the raft and it sinks. 😂😂

[@TylerGoesFishing]

There are 2 air chambers so if one looses air the other can keep you afloat. Also, the material is super tough. This raft was designed for fishing.

[@lazybagpipe]

A few questions here how tall are you what kind of vehicle do you have so it fits in trunk do you recommend getting a kayak paddle how easy is this to inflate and deflate

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Im 5 foot 7 I drive a sedan I do not recommend a kayak paddle Very easy to inflate and deflate

[@tzechungchan5575]

Can it be used in saltwater? Is it easy to dry?

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Id be hesitant to use it in the ocean. Its very slow so if you catch a bad current I can imagine it would take a lot of effort to get back. I used it on a windy day once on a large lake and it took so long to get back to the car. my arms were dead.

[@gonzo2.0]

Nice video, did you switch from the kayak paddle back to the oars after you used the boat a few times?

[@TylerGoesFishing]

I now use the paddles it came with

[@nsydyrhd]

How do you find casting in the seated position versus standing?

[@TylerGoesFishing]

Not much harder

[@WAEofFishing]

I could have met you up there!
